TSA denies having required a 95-year-old woman to remove diaper – CNN.com.

Weber said the agents made it clear that her mother could not board the plane unless they were able to inspect the diaper.

According to Weber, it was her idea to remove the diaper so it could be inspected and they could make their flight.

“They were doing their job according to the instructions of the TSA and their policies,” Weber said, later adding that the options offered them were to remove the diaper or “she was not going to get on the plane.”

On Sunday, Weber told CNN that the June 18 incident occurred when she and her mother were traveling from northwest Florida to Michigan, where her mother was planning to move in with other relatives prior to moving into an assisted-living facility.

“My mother is very ill, she has a form of leukemia,” Weber said Sunday. “She had a blood transfusion the week before, just to bolster up her strength for this travel.”

I am sorry to say that the TSA has absolutely lost it’s capacity to use simple logic.  BTW, how’s that burka checking coming along?  Afraid of being called racists?  When is this stupidity going to end?  When will we actually begin using behavior profiling?
